Once cylinders are removed,
front glass will have NO support
to maintain it in a raised position.
Support the front glass at all times
until cylinder is replaced
or the glass is lowered.
WARNING
!
Cylinder rods must point down so
oil will lubricate the rod and seals. Failure to
lubricate will severely shorten cylinder life.
CAUTION
!
Glass is heavy and can cause
bodily damage. Check support
cylinders for periodic maintenance.
WARNING
!
Cylinders are a wear item.
They are designed:
• to support the glass when fully open.
• to allow the glass to come down
(or close) slowly.
Have your Service Contractor replace the
cylinders when required.
